The Spy Who Loved Me: 1977. Roger Moore. When I was young, this was on HBO all the time. It's the Bonf flick with the Lotus that turns into the submarine. The plot is a re-hash of You Only Live Twice if you swap out space capsules for submarines. It is a fun movie. Moore is very watchable. The Bond gal, XXX, is very attractive and can act. Plus, it is the first movie with the Bond villain, Jaws. 7.5/10
Golden Eye: 1995. Pierce Bronson. The first of the Bronson Bond films. He rescued the series from the terrible Timothy Dalton run. The movie has a great cast: Judy Dench (her first as M), Michael Kitchen, Famke Janssen (watching her as Xenia Onatopp, a woman who can kill with her thighs is worth watching the movie for on its own), Alan Cummings, and Sean Bean, but the film is flawed. Despite great action sequences and a killer car chase with a tank, the whole film is based on a racist plot line. Bean is cossack. It is in their people's blood to betray others....... Really? 7.5/10
